In the last few weeks we have welcomed our newest member of the foodbank team, Liam Hannan. Liam is our new Business Development Manager and is leading the the development of the foodbank's corporate structure and our registration with the Charities' Commission.

As the need for foodbanks become more widespread it is necessary for foodbanks to become more professional and organised in their operations. This is not to say that we begin to lose sight of our values but rather to promote these values more efficiently and effectively. This way we can help more people and provide the same level of service to all those who walk through our doors.

Liam at the moment is working along with a number of volunteer groups to establish a Charity Constitution for the Manchester Central Foodbank. We are also looking for those interested in becoming Trustees for the foodbank who will oversee the running of the project as well as looking at future objectives.

If anyone is interested in getting further involved in the overall running of the foodbank they should contact us at mancfoodbank@yahoo.com
